Look at the various incidents that occur with the U.S. military in any given year — from training mishaps to Navy ships crashing into cargo vessels.
Heck — look at NASA, for heaven's sakes. Out of the agency’s fleet of five space shuttles, two of them were destroyed in catastrophic failures. You wouldn’t accept that kind of a failure rate in a toaster oven or a pocket calculator.

What do you picture happened? Two guys rough housing around in weapons con, one guy mistakenly typing in coordinates, getting radar lock, while the other flips the safety and launches? That seems like a very unlikely scenario. Occam’s Razor.
